The aspartate/glutamate carrier from bovine heart mitochondria was solubilized with dodecyl-octaoxyethylene ether (C12E8) and purified by chromatography on hydroxyapatite and celite. On SDS gel electrophoresis, the purified aspartate/glutamate carrier consisted of a single protein band with an apparent Mr of 31,500. When reconstituted into liposomes the aspartate/glutamate carrier protein catalyzed an N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive aspartate/aspartate exchange. It was purified 620-fold with a recovery of 17.2% and a protein yield of 0.03% with respect to the mitochondrial extract. The properties of the reconstituted carrier, i.e. requirement for a counteranion, substrate specificity and inhibitor sensitivity, were similar to those of the aspartate/glutamate carrier as characterized in mitochondria.  相似文献

Two anion-transporting systems, i.e., the dicarboxylate carrier and the 2-oxoglutarate carrier, have been purified from rat liver mitochondria and functionally identified. The dicarboxylate carrier has been isolated in active form by hydroxyapatite chromatography after partial removal of the solubilizing detergent Triton X-114 from the mitochondrial extract. The SDS gel electrophoresis of this preparation consists mainly of one protein band with an apparent Mr of 28,000, identified as the dicarboxylate carrier. Complete purification of the 28 kDa protein in inactive form has been achieved by sequential chromatography on hydroxyapatite and Celite followed by SDS extraction of the retained protein. The 2-oxoglutarate carrier has been purified by hydroxyapatite chromatography after extensive removal of Triton X-114 from the detergent extract. SDS gel electrophoresis of the purified fraction shows a single band with an apparent Mr of 32,500. When reconstituted into liposomes, the functional properties of the two isolated carrier proteins resemble closely those of the dicarboxylate and the 2-oxoglutarate transport systems characterized in mitochondria.  相似文献

The aspartate/glutamate carrier from beef heart mitochondria has been solubilized with detergent. The transport protein was partially purified by chromatography on hydroxyapatite in the presence of dodecyl octaoxyethylene ether and high concentrations of ammonium acetate. During purification, the aspartate/glutamate carrier was identified by functional reconstitution into egg yolk phospholipid liposomes. After hydroxyapatite chromatography the protein is 30 fold enriched in aspartate/glutamate transport activity but still contains ADP/ATP-carrier and phosphate carrier. The reconstituted activity is specific for exchange of L-aspartate and L-glutamate and is similar to intact mitochondria with respect to substrate affinity and inhibitor sensitivity.  相似文献

Abstract Bordetella calmodulin-like protein was purified from culture supernatant fluid of B. pertussis, B. parapertussis and B. bronchiseptica by successive chromatography on hydroxyapatite, Toyopearl HW-50F and QAE-Toyopearl 550C columns. The purified calmodulin-like protein appeared to be homogeneous by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The apparent molecular mass of calmodulin-like protein on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was 10 kDa, which was smaller than bovine brain calmodulin (17 kDa). The purified calmodulin-like protein activated both Bordetella adenylate cyclase and mammalian phosphodiesterase in a Ca2+-dependent manner. This activation was inhibited by calmodulin antagonists. The calmodulin-like protein, like calmodulin, was retained by a hydrophobic resin in the presence of Ca2+ and eluted by the addition of EDTA. These results indicated that the Bordetella calmodulin-like protein is closely related to calmodulin. As a putative calmodulin the extracellular calmodulin may be involved in Bordetella pathogenesis.  相似文献

The citrate carrier from maize (Zea mays) shoot mitochondria was solubilized with Triton X-100 and purified by sequential chromatography on hydroxyapatite and hydroxyapatite/celite in the presence of cardiolipin. SDS-gel electrophoresis of the purified fraction showed a single polypeptide band with an apparent molecular mass of 31 kD. When reconstituted into liposomes, the citrate carrier catalyzed a pyridoxal 5'-P-sensitive citrate/citrate exchange. It was purified 224-fold with a recovery of 50% and a protein yield of 0.22% with respect to the mitochondrial extract. In the reconstituted system the purified citrate carrier catalyzed a first-order reaction of citrate/citrate (0.065 min-1) or citrate/malate exchange (0.075 min-1). Among the various substrates and inhibitors tested, the reconstituted protein transported citrate, cis-aconitate, isocitrate, L-malate, succinate, malonate, glutarate, alpha-ketoglutarate, oxaloacetate, and alpha-ketoadipate and was inhibited by pyridoxal 5'-P, phenylisothiocyanate, mersalyl, and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate (but not N-ethylmaleimide), 1,2, 3-benzentricarboxylate, benzylmalonate, and butylmalonate. The activation energy of the citrate/citrate exchange was 66.5 kJ/mol between 10 degrees C and 35 degrees C; the half-saturation constant (Km) for citrate was 0.65 +/- 0.05 mM and the maximal rate (Vmax) of the citrate/citrate exchange was 13.0 +/- 1.0 micromol min-1 mg-1 protein at 25 degrees C.  相似文献

Phospholipid methyltransferase, the enzyme that converts phosphatidylethanolamine into phosphatidylcholine with S-adenosyl-L-methionine as the methyl donor, was purified to apparent homogeneity from rat liver microsomal fraction. When analysed by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis only one protein, with molecular mass about 50 kDa, is detected. This protein could be phosphorylated at a single site by incubation with [alpha-32P]ATP and the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. A less-purified preparation of the enzyme is mainly composed of two proteins, with molecular masses about 50 kDa and 25 kDa, the 50 kDa form being phosphorylated at the same site as the homogeneous enzyme. After purification of both proteins by electro-elution, the 25 kDa protein forms a dimer and migrates on SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis with molecular mass about 50 kDa. Peptide maps of purified 25 kDa and 50 kDa proteins are identical, indicating that both proteins are formed by the same polypeptide chain(s). It is concluded that rat liver phospholipid methyltransferase can exist in two forms, as a monomer of 25 kDa and as a dimer of 50 kDa. The dimer can be phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.  相似文献

We have attempted to purify endogenous substrate proteins for casein kinases I and II from the cytosol of AH-66 hepatoma cells. Utilizing the fact that only a few substrates are concentrated in the fraction eluted from DEAE-cellulose between 0.3 and 0.6 M NaCl, two substrates were purified from this fraction by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography, and HPLC on a DEAE-5PW column. The purified substrate proteins had molecular masses of 30.5 kDa and 31 kDa. The 31-kDa protein substrate was markedly phosphorylated by casein kinase II, but only slightly by casein kinase I. The radioactive phosphate incorporated into 31-kDa substrate by casein kinase II was 0.2 mol/mol of the protein and phosphorylation occurred on both threonine and serine residues. The 30.5 kDa protein was only slightly phosphorylated by casein kinase II, but not at all by casein kinase I.  相似文献

Verticillium fungicola, isolated from Agaricus bisporus (commercial mushroom), produced significant extracellular hydrophobin when grown for 7 days in a static liquid culture of synthetic minimal medium. The hydrophobin was purified by precipitation with ammonium sulphate (80% saturation), Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, and hydroxyapatite column chromatography. The purified protein yielded a single band in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under native conditions, with an apparent molecular mass of 70 +/- 4 kDa, and also another single band in SDS-PAGE, with a molecular mass of 7 +/- 3 kDa. Molecular mass determined with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) resulted in 7563.9 m/z. The same protein was extracted from the V. fungicola mycelium. Analysis of the amino acid composition revealed the presence of about 50% hydrophobic residues, detecting at least six cysteines, evaluated as cystines, and no free sulfhydryl groups. The protein did not show any glycosylation. On the basis of similarities in hydropathy patterns and solubility characteristics, V. fungicola hydrophobin can be included as a new member of Class II hydrophobins.  相似文献

Osteogenin was purified from bovine bone matrix and its activity monitored by an in vivo bone induction assay. The purification method utilized extraction of the bone-inducing activity with 6 M urea, followed by chromatography on heparin-Sepharose, hydroxyapatite, and Sephacryl S-200. Active fractions were further purified by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis without reduction. Osteogenin activity was localized in a zone between 30 and 40 kDa. The amino acid sequences of a number of tryptic peptides of the gel-eluted material were determined. Reduction and alkylation of purified osteogenin in 7 M guanidine hydrochloride resulted in the total loss of biological activity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions revealed a broad band with an apparent molecular mass of 22 kDa.  相似文献

The alpha-oxoglutarate carrier from pig heart mitochondria has been solubilized with Triton X-114 and purified by chromatography on hydroxyapatite and celite in the presence of cardiolipin. When applied to SDS gel electrophoresis, the purified protein consists of only a single protein band with an apparent Mr of 31.5 kDa. It corresponds to band 4 of the five protein bands previously identified in the hydroxyapatite pass-through of Triton X-114 solubilized heart mitochondria (Bisaccia, F. and Palmieri, F. (1984) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 766, 386-394). When reconstituted into liposomes the alpha-oxoglutarate transport protein catalyzes a phthalonate-sensitive alpha-oxoglutarate/alpha-oxoglutarate exchange. It is purified 250-fold with a recovery of 62% and a protein yield of 0.1% with respect to the mitochondrial extract. The properties of the reconstituted carrier, i.e., the requirements for a counteranion, the substrate specificity and the inhibitor sensitivity, are similar to those described for alpha-oxoglutarate transport in mitochondria.  相似文献

The enzyme procollagen C-proteinase removes the carboxy-terminal propeptide from procollagen. In the present study we describe an improved procedure for the purification of this enzyme. From the medium of cultured mouse fibroblasts, consisting of ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration and affinity chromatography on a lysyl-Sepharose column, followed by chromatography on a column of Sepharose coupled to the carboxy-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PP-Sepharose). This procedure yielded a practically homogeneous, 18,500-fold-purified enzyme preparation and the molecular mass of the purified C-proteinase as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was 80 kDa. The lysyl-Sepharose step separated the enzyme from the majority of the contaminating proteins, including a 55-kDa protein which was further purified by PP-Sepharose chromatography and identified as an additional form of the 36-kDa and 34-kDa procollagen C-proteinase enhancer proteins described before [Adar et al. (1986) Collagen Relat. Res. 6,267-277]. It enhanced the C-proteinase activity, bound to the carboxyl propeptide of type I procollagen, cross-reacted immunologically with the 36-kDa as well as the 34-kDa enhancer proteins, and in common with the latter proteins, it was glycosylated. In the course of PP-Sepharose chromatography, a large proportion of the 55-kDa protein disappeared with the concomitant appearance of the smaller enhancer proteins. All these findings suggest that the 55-kDa protein is a precursor of the low molecular mass enhancer proteins. Also suggested from this study is that lysyl-Sepharose chromatography is a highly beneficial purification step which may find use in the purification of the C-proteinase from other sources as well.  相似文献

Small molecular weight GTP-binding proteins in human erythrocyte ghosts   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) were extracted from human erythrocyte ghosts by sodium cholate and purified by gel filtration on an Ultrogel AcA-44 column followed by hydroxyapatite column chromatography. At least two peaks of G proteins were separated by hydroxyapatite column chromatography. The second peak contained G proteins recognized by the antibodies against the respective alpha subunits of Gs and Gi, and the ras protein, while the G protein of the first peak was not recognized by any of these antibodies. The G protein of the first peak was purified further by Mono Q HR5/5 column chromatography. The purified G protein showed a molecular weight of about 22 kDa on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This G protein (22K G) specifically bound guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio) triphosphate (GTP gamma S), GTP and GDP with a Kd value for GTP gamma S of about 50 nM. GTP gamma S-binding to 22K G was inhibited by pretreatment with N-ethylmaleimide. The G proteins recognized by the antibodies against the alpha subunit of Go and the ADP-ribosylation factor for Gs, designated as ARF, were not detected in human erythrocyte ghosts. These results indicate that there are at least two species of small molecular weight G proteins in human erythrocyte ghosts: one is the ras protein and the other is a novel G protein of 22K G.  相似文献

delta-Aminolevulinic acid, the biosynthetic precursor of tetrapyrroles, is synthesized from glutamate via the tRNA-dependent five-carbon pathway in the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium vibrioforme. The enzyme glutamyl-tRNA reductase (GTR), encoded by the hemA gene, catalyzes the first committed step in this pathway, which is the reduction of tRNA-bound glutamate to produce glutamate 1-semialdehyde. To characterize the GTR protein, the hemA gene from C. vibrioforme was cloned into expression plasmids that added an N-terminal His(6) tag to the expressed protein. The His-tagged GTR protein was purified using Ni affinity column chromatography. GTR was observable as a 49-kDa band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gels. The native molecular mass, as determined by gel filtration chromatography, appeared to be approximately 40 kDa, indicating that native GTR is a monomer. However, when the protein was mixed with 5% (vol/vol) glycerol, the product had an apparent molecular mass of 95 kDa, indicating that the protein is a dimer under these conditions. Purified His(6)-GTR was catalytically active in vitro when it was incubated with Escherichia coli glutamyl-tRNA(Glu) and purified recombinant Chlamydomonas reinhardtii glutamate-1-semialdehyde aminotransferase. The expressed GTR contained 1 mol of tightly bound heme per mol of pep tide subunit. The heme remained bound to the protein throughout purification and was not removed by anion- or cation-exchange column chromatography. However, the bound heme was released during SDS-PAGE if the protein was denatured in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol. Added heme did not inhibit the activity of purified expressed GTR in vitro. However, when the GTR was expressed in the presence of 3-amino-2,3- dihydrobenzoic acid (gabaculine), an inhibitor of heme synthesis, the purified GTR had 60 to 70% less bound heme than control GTR, and it was inhibited by hemin in vitro.  相似文献

The pyruvate carrier from castor bean mitochondria has been solubilized with Triton X-114 and partially purified using hydroxyapatite column chromatography. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the hydroxyapatite-eluate showed that there were 6 major protein bands of Mr, 74kDa, 66kDa, 34kDa, 32kDa, 30kDa 12kDa. When the eluate was reconstituted into liposomes it was shown to catalyze a pyruvate exchange reaction which was sensitive to N-ethyl maleimide and a series of analogues of alpha-cyanocinnamate. The characteristics of this pyruvate exchange activity are similar to that found in intact mitochondria, and it is concluded that one or more proteins in the hydroxyapatite-eluate correspond to the pyruvate carrier.  相似文献

Lamellar bodies isolated from 10% (w/v) rat lung homogenates by discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation were shown to contain variable amounts of adhering proteins. These contaminating proteins could be removed by either Sepharose 4B gel filtration or precipitation of the crude preparation at pH 11.5. Both purification methods yielded membrane preparations with a phospholipid-to-protein ratio of 10.0 μmol/mg. Nearly complete separation of lamellar body phospholipid and protein could be achieved upon application of the purified membranes to DEAE-cellulose in the presence of 0.2% (v/v) Triton X-100. Phospholipid analyses showed that 83% of total lipid phosphorus was recovered in phosphatidylcholine. In phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol recoveries amounted to 4, 8, 2 and 2%, respectively. Molecular mass determinations of the isolated protein component of lamellar bodies by means of SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and staining with Coomassie brilliant blue revealed the presence of three protein bands with molecular masses of 64, 33 and 31 kDa. Upon staining with silver a 16 kDa protein was also visible. Sephadex G-100 gel filtration showed only one protein peak corresponding to a molecular mass of 64 kDa when protein was assayed with Coomassie brilliant blue.  相似文献

A protease was purified some 700-fold from rat liver microsomes by a combination of differential detergent solubilization, hydroxyapatite column chromatography, and gel filtration. The protease exhibits substrate selectivity for stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD). The purified protease rapidly degraded SCD while other microsomal proteins including cytochrome b(5) and 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase were degraded slowly or not at all. The isolated form of the protease has an apparent molecular mass of approximately 90 kDa. Upon incubation, the 90 kDa form of the protease undergoes rapid conversion to a series of smaller proteins. This conversion is associated with a marked increase in proteolytic activity. Diisopropyl phosphofluoridate (DFP) at high concentration partially inhibited the protease activity. The [(3)H]DFP-labeled protease was detected as three protein bands of approximately 66 kDa under nonreducing conditions and a single 25 kDa band under reducing conditions. The purified protease was inhibited by dithiothreitol, suggesting the presence of an essential disulfide bond. These results further define the mechanism by which SCD is rapidly and selectively degraded in isolated liver microsomes.  相似文献

A unique protein that promotes ectopic osteoinduction in the rat has been isolated and characterized. Osteoinductive factor (OIF) was extracted from the organic matrix of bovine bone with 4 M guanidine HCl and purified by gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography, and reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. OIF is a glycoprotein with an apparent molecular mass of 22-28 kDa based on sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. Enzymatic or chemical deglycosylation of OIF reduces its mass to about 12 kDa with apparent loss of activity. OIF activity in the model used is substantially increased by addition of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta 1 or TGF-beta 2, suggesting an important role for TGF-beta 1 and -2 in bone regeneration and repair. The N-terminal sequence of OIF has no homology to other reported proteins.  相似文献

An S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent O-methyl-transferase capable of methylating 2-hydroxy-3-alkyl-pyrazine (HP) was purified 7,300-fold to apparent homogeneity with an 8.2% overall recovery from Vitis vinifera L. (cv. Cabernet Sauvignon) through a purification procedure including column chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose FF, Ether-5PW, hydroxyapatite, G2000SWXL, and DEAE-5PW. The relative molecular mass of the native enzyme estimated on gel permeation chromatography was 85 kDa, and the subunit molecular mass was estimated to be 41 kDa on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme also methylates caffeic acid. The Vmax for IBHP and caffeic acid were 0.73 and 175 pkatals/mg, respectively, and the respective Km for IBHP and caffeic acid were 0.30 and 0.032 mM. The optimum pH for IBHP (8.5) was different from that for caffeic acid (7.5).  相似文献
